Since UHD is the way ANY application talks to the radios, yes.  But I have no idea if OAI, as one of dozens and dozens of different appilcations
  "out there" has any way to support that functionality.


Also, I assume that the only other option would be to purchase an Octoclock or some other clock distribution module?
Yes, you'd need some kind of shared 10MHz reference clock and 1PPS source, AND your application needs to be able to configure the radios to
  use it.

    My system setup is as follows:

      * 2 x Ubuntu 18.04 workstation
      * 2 x Taoglas 45.8113 antenna
      * 2 x  Internal Reference Clock (Master Clock set at 184.32 MHz)
      * 2 x Internal Time source
      * 2 x Connected via 1 Gig-E interfaces
      * 2 x Using UHD 4.1

    The devices have been in two setups: stacked and a few inches apart.

    I am attempting to deploy a 5G network using the openairinterface
    (OAI) software system. Both devices synchronize initially, then
    they fail. With openairinterface, I am using frequency offset
    compensation at the UE. Its a useful parameter when running over
    the air and/or without an external clock/time source
    
(https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/blob/develop/doc/RUNMODEM.md)

    Is there a way to synchronize the reference clock/timing of both
    USRP x310s over the air? In the future, I will be attempting to
    connect a third USRP x310. My setup will include one base station
    and two user devices.

    Unless OAI provides some mechanism for that, the answer would be
    no.  You need a shared reference clock.
